I honestly don´t remember there ever was the chance to get a validation link, I just tested and nothing happened after I submitted to maxpi net - We will discuss this and if there is no way to get this verification link we will skip the link obligation

I made a task, it might get divided by cores, we will see - but the stages are mixed, we have also 32m for example which is definitely much better for non 2011

Wrongsair - let´s see what they can do - good luck

Good that you re-run, please don´t give me headaches, 4000,00 where it is stated - same for all, noone will have an advantage or disadvantage

This is awful, erm, aesome - with this cpu it is indeed magic

Roman, stop spamming - you already posted this in the other thread

Finally, I approve this

Sure, the SOCF is retail for long time now

I already created a task on this question, the main worry for me is that this is in fact not only limited to mobile cpu adapters, there are 775 cpu to 478 adapters for example and also for opposite, and there might be multiple options to use 478 cpus on other boards as well. This might change the intention of old school benching to a material battle with big spending, which was not intended

I think I will give the advice to ban this Seriously, I think adapters are allowed (because it states 478 COU, not board), but will ask once more before we all spend millions on these and then anger gets big

05 is becoming a cpu benchmark^^ - good run

Yes, I see no change at general rules for challenger divisions, so it should be ok

We discuss this, personally I would prefer this stage divided by cores and cinebench full out not divided, this would level things between 2011 and other platforms. Will keep you updated, but you can bench anyway until this is decided, Franco

I want skyfake too

5000 for xtu at screenshot or less, please, and 5ghz at xtu result shown - and yes, 6600k competes with 6700k or in general, four core, no matter if with ht or not are the deal. You can also use non K chip, but for xtu this makes no sense

Ivy-e and Haswell-e are allowed, I7 is limit

Like Rasparthe said, limit is on cpu and videocard, I see no reason why adpaters should not be allowed

We did not have background last year, and it is not mentioned at rules, so I think it stays same.

Wow, I hope you recover fast, would be nice to see you compete again

We have more 3d iirc than last year, we will see if no limit or if we make a change to a certain model. But it has an advnatage, you bench what you have^^

Only limitation is single GPU core so far, I will have a short brainstorm with Pieter when he is back from his exhausting brazil trip if we make any limitations on videocard series, this is for all divisions that use discrete cards, will update in start post if anything is decided

Guter Start, Marc, hau rein

I think we will limit it to single GPU core, like it is written at 11 performance rules already, should be same for fire strike

No limitations on GPU mentioned, so free choice

Yes, and this makes it double weird why people have enough space on screen and still don´t bother to show it despite the explicit screenshot at rules tab which makes it mandatory. I thought twice about this but then dicided to block these nontheless simply because rules are 100% clear, feel free to protest at head of moderation, but at 01 it is same, even if you show settings completely above the subtest window, it doesn´t match the rules. Sorry, but when I start to make exceptions and decide by "common sense" and thereby have to bend rules that are 100% clear I am not sure I will end up at making clear decisions in the future. It is annoying, I am aware of this, so I don´t make friends with this but it is the job
